New MyPixelPal Site in Development

Posted by on November 18, 2010 2 comments

To my perler people — I’m working on designing a new version of the perlerpal mypixelpal site, and will hopefully be including things that people are interested in.  If you have something you’d like to see in the new version, please let me know, so I can accommodate you if possible.  Here’s some of the features I’m looking at having:

  • User logins with Facebook login support
  • Everyone having their own area for reference images that won’t go away periodically (unlike today)
  • Your own palettes (instead of sharing with everyone)
  • Generating an image instead of using tables (which should fix some browser printing issues as well as have a more finite spacing ability)
  • A resizing option / cropping
  • A forum to discuss the site vs. my blog
  • A gallery where people can upload photos of their finished creations
  • Rating and comment system for the gallery
  • The ability for users to flag inappropriate gallery images

That’s what I have so far.   If you have any ideas on what would be good to include, please let me know!

Fun with WordPress / Disqus

So, I just learned tonight that the comments that I had been posting in response to comments people had made were not making it to the web, although they showed up in the dashboard.  Not sure what’s going on there, but needless to say, I was disappointed to find out that the stuff I had commented on never got seen.  I know I’m not the most diligent of responders, but this is ridiculous.  I’m going to make it a point to go through and respond to everyone (again).   This time with feeling!   Thanks for your understanding.
